‘Parents’ Is An Acquired Taste

My grandfather used to go to deer hunting. One time he told us a joke about a father who brings home some venison meat from a hunt. His kids are unaware of what it is because it doesn’t smell like beef or pork. He tells his kids, “I’ll give you a hint. It’s something yourContinue reading “‘Parents’ Is An Acquired Taste”

We Can Do Better Than This

I was briefly watching a Q&A between Charlie Kirk and a young woman who says she is a Democrat and a Christian. She quoted the Bible about Jesus feeding the needy in the Book of Matthew.

All That was anContinue reading “‘Good Burger 2’ Feels Like A Leftover That Stayed In The Fridge Too Long”
